If they find it is so difficult for them to 'come out' then perhaps they are better leaving and thus making a job available for someone who really needs a job?

I asked for clarification because you appeared to be saying that 'perhaps they are better [off] leaving and thus making a job available for someone who really needs a job'.
The implication (which I have inferred) is that the people leaving don't really need a job (as opposed to leaving for a position in another company).
This is why I asked "Is that right?" at the end of my post, in order to get clarity on what you meant.
So, why did you mean?

Furthermore, in your response today, you wrote:
"I never said that they did not need a job, I meerly pointed out that if they found their working environment uncomfortable why not leave and make way for someone who needs a job?"
But the implication is right there.
Put another way:
"It's freezing cold outside, why don't you give up your parka to someone who really needs a jacket"
The implication is that the person who is wearing the parka doesn't need it. You haven't said explicitly that the parka-wearer doesn't need it, but the implication is there - even though you didn't mean it. I believe this is what people have picked up on, in this thread.
But leaving that aside, it begs the question of the point of the question in the first place.
Gay people find it difficult to come out at work, so they leave companies for other gainful employment. Therefore, what's the point of your question? What are you actually asking??.

welcome back to the glorious non sequitur AOG
// If they find it is so difficult for them to 'come out' then perhaps they are better leaving //
erm that is why they are leaving
and if industry were to take this into account then they could save MONEY ! which is after all the point of being in business
so it is about industry and mmoney and not really about LGBT issues at all
but AOG you really knew that, and wre just trying to instil argument, weren't you

// I think AoG reaching a rapprochement with LGBT is about as likely as a Muslim and a BLT, eccles ... //
well less likely I think
I was sitting quietly at work, and one *** said to the other who was biting into a BLT -
is that sheep or pork ? ( ghanzir )
and I said tastes good either way
and then one hissed to the other - I told you he spoke Arabic and you said he didn't !
I mean can you imagine AOG kissing a trannie and then commenting:
"well he looked like a woman to me !"

Please help. I and others don't understand why you've raised this question.
The article states that gay people are leaving their jobs because they find it difficult coming out, and you have asked:
If they find it so difficult for them to 'come out' then perhaps they are better leaving...etc
The point of the story is that this causes unnecessary spending in advertising and recruitment.
What point are you trying to make? I'm not the only one who doesn't unders why you've raised this question.
So clarification required...
